A day at the beach

A local beach opened today and we decided it was a great thing to do with the kids since we've yet to go swimming in the year we've been here. The one we went to is about 30 minutes from the house, but it was really nice. The sand is so different from back home (bigger granuales and not slimy at all on the bottom) and it was really clean. Jacob wasn't too sure about the water, but after about 20 minutes of sitting on the waters edge, he got into it. He's a daredevil though so he has to really be watched. He loves putting his face in the water!! Here's a few pics from our day. The water looks really gross colored, but it's because of the reddish sand that they have down here. It was actually very clean water. Tomorrow we are off to Zoo Atlanta!
